Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Past Guests:

“Zhyldyz was an amazing hosts! The home was really well set up for our needs of a fun weekend in Charleston but would also be perfect for a work from home week. It was well stocked with all the things you need and the beds were supper comfortable. They always responded to our questions in a timely fashion and were so nice about any adjustments we needed to make. We would definitely stay there again in the future!” - Jonathan

“We had an outstanding experience! Z and Flo were very accommodating, helpful and kind hosts. The neighbors were friendly and the neighborhood was quiet. Many walkable places to shop, eat and sightsee. The house was exactly as pictured and described. Spotless and very up to date. Relaxing with a chill open floor plan. Games and books included. Technology was modern and the tv had lots of apps. Great parking included. Neighborhood is up and coming!” - Elizabeth

“Great time staying here! Very clean and super close to everything. 10/10 recommend!” - Christian
